Obama's speech seems to have opened a full-scale examination of race in American and in politics, but his campaign is moving on fast.

His speech today was on the cost of Iraq, reiterating a sharp exchange with McCain that went almost unnoticed yesterday.

And the attack of the day is on NAFTA in the Clinton schedules. On a campaign conference call just now, chief strategist David Axelrod said Clinton "owes an apology to the people of this country" for suggesting that she hadn't been involved in passing NAFTA when her schedules provide "direct, incontrovertible evidence that Sen. Clinton was involved on this issue."

Canadian government has shown notes of the unofficial meeting with Obama advisor that prove the advisor said privately ONLY what Obama said publicly--not throw out trade agreement but negotiate changes to protect American business--the exact same thing Clinton said. She knows this and still she used it again today. That's why 6 out of 10 Americans say she is not honest or trustworthy. She "won" Ohio based on this lie when her own White House papers prove that she supported Nafta. She lied to Ohio and they believed her. I bet Pennsylvania will be a bit more discerning.

If your a REpublican, life simply cant get better!!! I mean, look at this page!! Two democrats and thier supporters battling over WHO is the biggest liar. Is it NAFTA Hillary Who tells Ohio, Michigan and Penn that she was against NAFTA behind the scenes while her hubby was breaking knee caps to get it passed. COme to find out, ooopsie, Hillary's schedule showed she was busting some knee caps too for NAFTA!!! Or is it Rev. Jerimiah Obama??? Mr. I never heard Rev. Wright spew hate from the pew....ummm...err..maybe I was there once or twice while he was telling New Yorkers that 3000 dead victims of the twin towers were gods retrebution for slave labor or civil rights that none of the WTC victims were even alive during! Then Obama says, we have to understand Rev. Wrong's anger. Its real. So is David Duke's anger! Doesnt make him less of a nutjob!!! Meanwhile, Cindy McCain is measuring curtains in the White House!!! HAAAA...Democratic year indeed!!

Obama has lied about wost things, like racism. He based his campaing on the fact that he was such a uniter, turns out he has been supporting/following a deranged pastor, whose view of racial relations is very divisive. Obama calls is grandmother a "typical white person" What is that suppose to mean? He is a hypocrite, disgusting person.

CHANGE, putting another man in the WH is not change, putting a woman in CHARGE is the real Change. NOW TELL ME, WHY ARE YOU ALL AFRAID OF A WOMAN IN CHARGE? Men have been in charge for way too long and look at what they have done to this Country. SO GET OVER YOURSELVES AND STOP BEING AFRAID OF A WOMAN INSTEAD OF A MAN IN CHARGE!!!

Quote from above: "Obama's speech seems to have opened a full-scale examination of race in American and in politics, but his campaign is moving on fast."
Sure, he must move away fast from that race issue, because our first glimpse at Obama's real image showed wasn't a nice one. On 3/18, I had the chance to hear Obama?s race-speech in its entirety. He spoke eloquently, clearly, and to the point. It was my first time hearing him speak, and there is no question that he is an excellent orator. It was a sweeping presentation under the United States flags. An impressive show-off. But a day after, I?ve realized three very important things:
1. He failed to explain (or chose to ignore) why, in spite of those spewed anti-American sermons by the pastor, he, Obama, continued to be a close member of that church.
2. Knowing the rage that his pastor harbored (as expressed in his appalling rhetorics), Obama still made him the ?spiritual leader? of his presidential campaign.
3. Most importantly, Obama had just proved what many say about him. That he is full of words without substance. As in the case of his pastor, when it?s time for hard choices, he folds up using articulate words.

I believe that maybe one day, hopefully in my life time, that the news pundits will investigate objectively and report unbiasely substance and truth. Please stop being the purveyors of half truths and unsubstantive stories fed and reported in its entiretiy as spoonfed by the Clinton Express. After all, a lie is a lie, regardless of who espounds it as truth, "I never favored NAFTA, even though I strongly supported it".
